UK celebrity endorsement company, Celebrity, have responded
to news of Calvin Harris working with Italian fashion company, Emporio Armani,
on their next advertisement campaign.
Thirty year old Calvin Harris, who has released four hit
albums in the last seven years, is set to be the face of Italian Fashion
Company, Emporio Armani, with their next campaign. An image on Twitter has been
revealed to announce the news, with the popular DJ sporting some Emporio Armani
clothing for a shoot.
The news was in light of the revelation that Calvin Harris
has been announced as the highest earning DJ in the world, and ninth place
overall in top paid musicians, with details provided by the American Business
Magazine, Forbes. In 2014, Harris earned £42 million in appearances, sets and
music production, making him a desirable figure for an endorsement campaign.
Emporio Armani grabbed the star while he’s at his peak, with his new album,
Motion, released shortly before the announcement.
Recent illness relating to some heart problems, caused
Harris to leave the MTV European Music Awards (EMA), but with the new album
release and the Armani deal, he’s made a swift recovery from what caused him to
make an early exit at the awards show.
Calvin Harris has also been seen wearing Emporio Armani
clothing at the Emporio Armani Womenswear FW 2014/2015 Show, and also at the
2014 Grammy and Brit awards, which has built up to the current partnership
between the two.
Calvin Harris posted a tweet on Twitter which said, ‘Behind
the scenes from a recent photo shoot with @calvinharris for new #EmporioArmani
campaign! #CalvinHarrisforEA @Armani’
Often commenting on industry news, a spokesperson for
Celebrity said, ‘Calvin Harris’s popularity has been on the rise over the last
seven years, and this year he’s really come into his own, making him incredibly
desirable for many companies who want to have their products endorsed. Wearing
the brand at the Brit and Grammy awards will have done wonders for Emporio
Armani, and now that they’re working together, they can create an even bigger
impact within the industry.
Calvin Harris started off as a local act within the country,
working at a fish processing factory before he made it, showing that anyone can
make a name for themselves through hard work and find attention worldwide. We
help companies find celebrities right for their campaign, and we believe they
can find as much success with one of our endorsements as Armani will find with
Calvin Harris.’
